Current movie trailers revealing too much?

[Pauliesr]

I worked in the movie theater business since '87 and I could tell you that I've felt that trailers have been showing too much for about the last 15 years or so. It had gotten to the point that I wouldn't bother watching the movie because the trailer would show 90% ofthe film. And I figured why should I spend two hours in front of a screen when I can get almost the whole thing in two minutes. It's almost like the other 1:58 is just filler.

I always thought (and still do with most things) that 'less is more' and that definitely applies to trailers (previews to most people).

P.S. For anyone that cares, the reason that they're called 'trailers' is they were originally played after a movie or 'trailed a movie' - for anyone that cares
